On the final train from Southend Central to London Fenchurch Street, commuters were terrified when a fox boarded the carriage.
Eve Amoateng, 21, was travelling on the late-night c2c service when she witnessed the unexpected hairy passenger in her carriage.
Unable to call for assistance due to insufficient phone signal, Eve and fellow commuters were trapped as the animal blocked their path to the next carriage.
It was a fox, not a man-eating tiger, and it would have left them alone if everyone had stayed quiet.
It’s probably one of the safer things to get on a train these days, unlike a knife-wielding nutcase. A fox will usually only attack if it feels threatened. Running about is only going to make it frightened and more likely to attack.
It was a fox, not a wolf, and if not provoked, it will not hurt you. But then a wolf probably would not harm unless it was provoked, but then it’s unlikely a wolf would be foolish enough to catch a train.
I have sympathy for these creatures. They have no other option except to seek nourishment in the filthy metropolises that are replacing their homes.
The purpose of defaming foxes is to allow the so-called nobility to hunt them.
They are lovely animals, and even though it appeared to be very comfortable sitting on the seat, it must have been afraid. It was clearly trying to find a warm place to sleep.
His mates probably told him the trains were running again, and he couldn’t believe it and had to come and look for himself.
Foxes frequently come out and walk in the park behind me, and the cubs follow, and I love it when I see them – nature is stunning.
Undoubtedly, the fox had things to do and places to be but thought it would have a snooze on the way.
The fox was hardly the real concern here. What would have been truly alarming is if Keir Starmer had boarded the train. In terms of cunning, Starmer far surpasses any fox and is far more dangerous.
My vision on life is pretty broad, therefore I like to address specific subjects that intrigue me. Therefore I really appreciate the world of politics, though I have no actual views on who I will vote for, that I will not tell you, so please do not ask!
I am like an observation station when it comes to writing, and I simply take the news and make it my own. I have no expectations, I simply love to write, and I know this seems really odd, but I don't get paid for it, I really like what I do and since I am never under any pressure, I constantly find that I write much better, rather than being blanketed under masses of paperwork and articles that I am on a deadline to complete.
The chances are, that whilst all other journalists are out there, ripping their hair out, attempting to get their articles completed, I'm simply rambling along at my convenience creating my perfect piece.
I guess it must look pretty unpleasant to some of you that I work for nothing, perhaps even brutal. Perhaps I have an obvious disregard for authority, I have no idea, but I would sooner be working for myself, than under somebody else, excuse the pun!
Small I maybe, but substantial I will become, eventually.
My desk is the most chaotic mess, though surprisingly I know where everything is, and I think that I would be quite unsuited for a desk job.
My views on matters vary and I am extremely open-minded to the stuff that I write about, but what I write about is the truth and getting it out there, because the people must be acquainted. Though I am quite entertained by what goes on in the world.
My spotlight is mostly to do with politics, though I do write other material as well, but it's essentially politics that I am involved in, and I tend to concentrate my attention on that, however, information is essential. If you have information the possibilities are endless because you are only limited by your own imagination...
